Moment one of Israel's most dangerous criminals is shot dead at petrol station at point-blank range
2026-08-25
[DM] This is the moment one of Israel's most dangerous criminals was shot dead outside a petrol station at point-blank range.

CCTV footage shows the suspect walking up to the building entrance wearing a grey hoodie, black cargo trousers and a white baseball cap with his hands in his pockets.

As he goes up to the front doors, three men – including mafia boss Yanis Yushvaev – exit the building.

As they leave the petrol station, the unknown assassin turns around and pulls a handgun from his hoodie pocket before shooting Yushvaev in the back of the head at point-blank range.

The two other men flinch in terror as the gunman runs from the scene in Caesarea, north of Tel Aviv in Israel, on Sunday.

According to social media reports, the killer 'used a hyperrealistic silicone mask of the "second skin" type' to conceal his identity.

He then 'fled the scene in a getaway car, which a dozen or so minutes later was found abandoned and set on fire in a nearby town'.

Yushvaev, 40, was the head of a crime group with links to the Jewish Caucasus community, Israeli police have said.
